< 15 Illumination Parameters Calculators

Number of Lamps Required for Illumination

Go Number of Lamp = (Illumination Intensity*Area of Illumination)/(Luminous Flux*Utilization Factor*Maintenance Factor)

Index of Refraction

Go Refractive Index of Medium 1 = (Refractive Index of Medium 2*sin(Refracted Angle))/sin(Incident Angle)

Luminance

Go Luminance = Luminous Intensity/(Area of Illumination*cos(Illumination Angle))

Luminous Flux

Go Luminous Flux = (Area of Illumination*Luminous Intensity)/(Length of Illumination^2)

Reduction Factor

Go Reduction Factor = Mean Spherical Candle Power/Mean Horizontal Candle Power

Mean Horizontal Candle Power

Go Mean Horizontal Candle Power = Sum of Candle Power/Number of Lamp

Solid Angle

Go Solid Angle = Area of Illumination/(Radius of Illumination^2)

Maintenance Factor

Go Maintenance Factor = Final Illumination/Initial Illumination

Illumination

Go Illumination Intensity = Luminous Flux/Area of Illumination

Mean Hemi-Spherical Candle Power

Go Mean Hemi Spherical Candle Power = Luminous Flux/(2*pi)

Mean Spherical Candle Power

Go Mean Spherical Candle Power = Luminous Flux/(4*pi)

Lamp Efficiency

Go Lamp Efficiency = Luminous Flux/Input Power

Candle Power

Go Candle Power = Luminous Flux/Solid Angle

Lumens

Go Lumen = Candle Power*Solid Angle

Depreciation Factor

Go Depreciation Factor = 1/Maintenance Factor

Mean Spherical Candle Power Formula

Mean Spherical Candle Power = Luminous Flux/(4*pi)
M.S.C.P. = F/(4*pi)

What are Foot-candle and Metre-candle?

Foot candle or Lumen per square foot is defined as the illumination produced on the inner surface of a hollow sphere of a hollow sphere of radius one foot by a point surface at the center of intensity of one candela.
Metre-candle is defined as the illumination produced on the inner surface of a hollow sphere of radius one meter by a point surface at the center of uniform intensity of one candela.
